Big Boi: 'I couldn't parallel park'

Big Boi has confessed that he initially failed his driving test as a teenager because he was unable to parallel park correctly.

In an appearance on MTV's When I Was 17, the Outkast rapper said that the maneuver made him nervous and unable to put his good driving skills into practice.

"I was so worried about trying to parallel park. I was always trying to slide this way, slide that way," he explained.

"I'm so nervous about that, I get in the car, I'm driving and the man's like, 'Well, you did great and everything, you can parallel park, but you didn't put on your seatbelt, so you failed'. I was like, 'Damn'."

Big Boi eventually learned the skill and was able to get his driver's licence.
